Do you know how the Hugo voting system works? I think it's a good one.


Given that like 1/2 of the books are my noms, this makes it difficult to choose!

RAFO Book Awards:

* Book of the RAFO Year

I'd like to know what this category means.

* Best Fantasy
1. Mike Allen, ed. ~ Clockwork Phoenix 3: New Tales of Beauty and Strangeness
2. Elizabeth Bear ~ By the Mountain Bound
3. N.K. Jemisin ~ The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms


* Best Sci-Fi
1. Elizabeth Bear ~ Chill

* Most anticipated book (as of yet unpublished)
1. Catherynne M. Valente ~ Deathless
2. Lyda Morehouse ~ Resurrection Code
3. Elizabeth Bear ~ The Sea Thy Mistress (conclusion to the Edda of Burdens trilogy)


RAFO SF/F MB Awards:

*Poster of the Year
1. Bryce
2. Werthead
3.Camilla

The Hugo system does look good, but seems like it'd have problems with small amounts of voters. Legolas - 25/08/2010 04:11:48 PM 597 Views
Well, I could blog about it, I suppose... Larry - 25/08/2010 04:22:35 PM 610 Views
